Allah is not a name, its simply Arabic, a secondary branch of Hebrew, for El-lah, the singular form of Elohim, the God in the Bible. It's better than what we call God, after the name of the god Gaud, the Canaanite god of Fortune.

Since when are non-denominational Christians considered non-Protestant? Protestantism certainly includes any person like you that hold to the Five Solas of the Reformation, such as, according to the Bible Alone, which is itself a non-Biblical doctrine, originating from the Protestant doctrines...

Its relative. Revolting angels unaware they a part of God's plans is no less a revolting angel like any revolting human is. The Serpent and Adam are both punished having disobeyed God's commands and seemingly his will, while we see they both in reality fulfilled God's plan, not thwarted it. The...

So? Thousands of Protestant churches are all twisting every verse in the Bible in an ever widening divide, most all the Christian world must be cursed else there wouldn't be such division. If twisting Bible verses and ignorance is a damnable sin you have many of your own houses to worry about...

To the OP. I wish Nigeria well, I'm just being a bit contrary, it's the debate section. Either this post is not supposed to be here or someone must start disagreeing with the OP, however challenging. Thus I say, why pray for Nigeria specifically? Why not just pray for the world?

Post this in the debate section, you're asking us to debate. Why not pray for the poor in our community first? Is there a disaster or emergency? I'm poor, I'll send my best wishes, but "If wishes were horses, we'd all be eating steak" ~ fictional character Jayne Cobb, Firefly

Will I? Who are you, the gatekeeper? I recall Jesus held the keys to death and hell, and released captives in Hades on his Resurrection. Protestants like yourself with no claim to authority on biblical interpretation nor authority to claim a monopoly on correct doctrine in Glass Houses should...

What Jesus teaches of Hades in Lazarus and the rich man matches well with what the first century Jews believed about the wicked in Hades. God is the God of second chances. Josephus's Discourse to the Greeks Concerning Hades 1. Now as to Hades, wherein the souls of the of the good things they...

Did you mean divinization?

Indeed, the Bibles calls angels "gods", demons "other gods" and some humans "gods". You're issue of singularity of gods arise from the so-called "denial verses" of Isaiah. For Isaiah to writes "I am the Lord there is none beside me", is to say I am unlike any other, it’s not to say there are no...

It kills me to see Christians argue about Mormon belief, when they are defending something Catholics innovated and not a shred of awareness of ancient Jewish belief. The doctrine of Creato Ex Nihilo (Creation from Nothing) hss no ancient context. This idea was not evident in Early Christian...

I'm not judging Protestants who sought to escape tyranny, just in terms of doctrine their weird acceptance of some Catholic doctrine and tradition certainly suffers on this subject. "Theosis" is just a label for the doctrine, just like other labels used like [Edit: I just now read the rules that...

Not Eastern Orthodox, but I concur the Protestants jumped ship too early before Vatican II when the Roman Catholics realized they forgot they believed in theosis. The early "Bible" was the dead sea scrolls, lettters and modern authorities who were alive to preach, scripture was from the horse's...

Ezekiel 28 appears to say the Fallen Cherub had a golden "covering", though taken to mean his "skin", I think it refers to a tent, or rather a golden sanctuary in the Garden of Eden, at the Summit of the Mountain of God. A Temple's gilded holy place with Cherubim on the walls. Alternate...

Seeing people's Countenance shine is a common place gift, not so grand a gift compared to Prophesy, a Prophet is below a Seer. Seeing the divine glory, spirits and angels is not the same as hearing God, and hearing God is different than seeing God. Seers stood in the presence of God, others have...
